One of the advantages of being ‘old’ is that some kind of Chromosome kicks in that makes you think about others more than yourself! It must be an evolutionary thing; I mean, what’s the point of keeping an unproductive human being around unless they can help the rest of the species in other ways?

Anyway, yesterday I achieved a goal – indirectly through Envato because I have been saving from my work for explainer videos – the goal was to buy a piece of land in Malawi for our hard-working gardener who is forced to live away from his home to support his family. For the cost of half a new iMac, his family is now rent free and building a new future. It makes me so grateful to be able to live with my own family.

No, I didn’t literally pay for it, but the financial freedom and confidence I got from Envato allowed me to take the bold decision of quitting that life I really dreaded. I shudder at the thought of not having found Envato, and having to continue with the way things were
